The spicy and ever-unpredictable Minoru Suzuki has decided that teaming with Chris Jericho is about as appealing as a three-day-old sushi roll. Instead, Suzuki is hell-bent on serving up a singles match beatdown for the FTW Championship. The drama is set to unfold on next week’s “AEW Dynamite: Blood & Guts.” Get your popcorn ready, folks—this is gonna be more intense than my last golf game with the fake news media!
For three weeks, Jericho has been nursing a bruised ego and possibly a bruised rear after Suzuki slapped him with that challenge. In the meantime, Jericho has been playing nice with HOOK, Samoa Joe, and Katsuyori Shibata. But let’s be real, settling issues in wrestling is like getting a permanent tan—never gonna happen!
This bombshell was dropped after Jericho’s latest “TV Time” segment on “AEW Dynamite 250.” Jericho, ever the spotlight-stealer, declared he’d be gracing us with his presence on every “Dynamite” episode from now on. As if we needed more Jericho in our lives! Just when Jericho was about to crown himself king of TV, Suzuki stormed in with a piece of paper like it was a paternity test reveal on a talk show. Bryan Keith read the fine print and BOOM! Not only is the match happening next week, but Keith and Big Bill are banned from ringside. No backup dancers for Jericho this time!
Now, Jericho vs. Suzuki is set to be a glorious undercard spectacle, but don’t get it twisted—the main event is a whole other beast. The fourth-ever Blood & Guts cage match will see The Elite—Matthew and Nicholas Jackson, Kazuchika Okada, Jack Perry, and “Hangman” Adam Page—taking on Swerve Strickland, Mark Briscoe, The Acclaimed, and a mystery fifth member. Intrigue, betrayal, and probably some blood—just another day at the wrestling office!
